5-Minute Try It: Computer Screen Glaze… Stand Up!

Minute one: Acknowledge with grace the amount of time you sit in front of a computer screen working, or even playing, just seated in your chair. Notice your energy level. Is it low or high, productive or unproductive?

Minute two: Stand up and place your attention on your feet. Feel the soles of your feet touching the ground. Root your feet down into the earth. Feel the sensations at the point of contact and begin to bring the energy up through your feet into your lower legs.

Minute three: Continue to bring earth’s energy up through your legs. As the energy rises, begin to place your weight in one foot while still staying connected with both feet. Allow your gaze to be soft – in the distance if you have a window – relaxing your eyes. Allow your arms to hang gently by your side.
